However, it turns out that Jade Thirlwall will not be able to enter the studio with her band mates Jesy Nelson, Perrie Edwards and Leigh-Anne Pinnock
No, the singer was forced to go into self-isolation with her representatives confirming the news in a statement this week

Since the news broke, Jade has remained in a good mood on social media and joined her girl gang to promote their new hit, Sweet Melody – which will be featured on their upcoming album, Confetti
